If U Want A Ps2 Modchip In The Uk, Get One Quick


I don't know much about this, but isn't it possible to just replace the actual PS2 CD drive casing with a 3rd party one which allows you to boot whatever you like and costs about $5?

no, sadly.. each disc contains odd sectors which cannot be copied without a mastering drive. The mod convinces the ps2 that the disc has passed authentication (roughly)

I have a fliptop, but I'm planning on making that into a window and putting a modchip in now I have semi decent soldering skills.

Anyone reccomend the best ps2 mod chip to get then?
 
It just makes it easier to do the loading of the game after you put in a boot disc or something like it(aka Gameshark, Action Replay).

You can also do some stuff with a credit card :).
 
I've got one of the first fully working chipped PS2 - a one with a NEO4 and an ORIGA chip (also called NEORIGA).

Works fine - direct boot from everything :)
Also all those Anti-Mod games work fine :)

But was hell modding it... (about 40 wires...)

So what exactly does that $5 replacement cover fliptop thing do then?

the flip top is so you can get to the disc and change it without the console thinking you opened the tray.

The ps2 basically does the auth process on a properly pressed real ps2 disc, such as action replay or the pressed swap magic discs then at a pre defined moment you flip the lid open, swap discs for a backup, close lid, press a button.

also many discs need to be "no mod" patched to work with this method, and multi disc games are real hard to use.

...

then theres using a mod...

put the directly copied game in and press reset

thats it !! :)

ps for gp32x members i can supply and fit a proper mod for 45gbp plus postage.
